Re: Side Light/Parking Light
I think he is talking about the W5W lamps !
It took me about half an hour to change both last time I changed them ! I didn't find anybody with small hands, and mines are pretty big... So I had to find a way to do it !
I've used different tools but i can't remember the english names.. Just classic tools kind of like those: http://perso.orange.fr/yannick.fetre...ges/pinces.jpg ...

I just changed mine out and replaced them with red led bulbs. The easiest way I found was to take a flat head screwdriver and place it on the edge of the bulb hold. Then gently tap it until it rotates vertically. Then you just slide it out, replaced the bulb, and put it back in. Once in place, reverse the procedure, lightly tapping it until it rotates back horizontally.

If I change one should I changethe other or just wait for it to go out as well? The replacement light comes in a set of two.
